demands for major initiatives to fight high inflation at Ottawa is hardly surprising in View of the latest cost of living index figures released by Statistics Canada The latter showed the inflation rate is now 78 per cent the highest since June 1976 And what has been pomted out many times increased government tax spending which has added to costs of business and industry as well as Canadians generally is major factor Not only federally but at all levels of government there is pressing need to face the slipping ec0nomy with realistic approach This can only mean cutting back on unnecessary and often wasteful spending of tax aners money and help to reduce operating costs for usiness and industry to stimulate the economy The trend of the past decade in which the federal government has more than tripled its tax spending can not continue indefinitel without serious economic reper cussions Indeed some elieve this is largely responsible for the present situation with its widespread unemploy ment and higher prices The provincial government and other administrations also have to cooperate for an effective program Member of Parliament for GreySimcoe Gus Mttges called attention to
